Thread: views on a hatton castillo next year

.

lookin forward to this one next year as long as both get thru there next opponents. im a big fan of both fighters. would have hatton edging this one just tho. expecting a great war between these two warriors nevertheless

A war!

Hatton always gives his fans 100% and castillo is one hell of a fighter who likes a tear up.

I think this fight could be something very special.

Castillo by 5th round knock out

Tszyu couldn't knock him out so i doubt Castillo will....especially not in the 5th.

I've posted quite a few long winded analysi (I think thats the right term ) but to cut a long story short, most things Castillo can do, Hatton can do better, stronger, faster, bigger, more powerful, more varied, and higher workrate, weigh-ins never an issue.

LMAO@Killer and VD. I already have a 10 CC bet with VD,you want to join in Killer,but we can have our usual sig bet instead?

I basically agree with yOItsdan,Hatton is younger,stronger,faster etc plus how will JLC'spower carry and at 31,pro for15/15 years,surely time will catch up to JLC? I mean those wars with Corrales were like 10 fights in 1 night! I just don't see how he will beat Hatton and Hatton is alot rougher too. 1 thing that will be intriguing is how Hatton will respond IF JLC goes to his body consistently,no one has used body attacks against Hatton really have they?

Thats true, but those only because Hatton always gets there first! Its his bread and butter. There's definitly a few things going for Castillo though, he's smart and has a good jab, and he can deliver odd angle shots, but i very much doubt he can 'old man' Hatton,I imagine he still believes he can out gun him.

Well it will certainly be a war but I'm pretty confident in saying Hatton will win,JLC's wars will catch up to him somewhere but I will definitely be rooting for Castillo! Don't get me wrong,JLC has alot of things going for him but I just think Hatton has more in each department.

In his last fight, I remember him being pretty ordinary against Rolando Reyes. He looked his age for sure.

I think he was just taking it easy in that fight,that was not JLC at his best and if that is how he will perform against Hatton,he's in trouble but I think he'll rise the occassion! Aside from PBF-Oscar and Cotto-Margarito,I can't think of a fight which has been discussed for next year that I am more excited about!!

Are we just doing a straight winner bet? Castillo vs. Hatton? I am worried that Castillo won't make weight.
Also there is a very good chance EITHER fighter might be disqualified.

Hatton didn't look like no monster in his last fight. And he was facing a guy who was willing to fight. As oppose to Reyes who ran all night from Castillo
